Don’t Bet Your Heart lyrics

[RAFAELA]
Who here likes to gamble?
My game is roulette
Spin the wheel, place a bet

[SUZY, spoken]
Money in the hat?

[RAFAELA]
Love the rush, but don't forget

[SUZY, spoken]
Support the arts!

[RAFAELA]
Always be ready to walk away
Only bet what you can lose
If you ignore these simple rules
(spoken)
What can I say?
You're one of those fools!

(sung)
You bet your life, don't bet your heart
That's not the thing you wanna lose
You bet your life, don't bet your heart
You bet your life, don't bet your heart
You'll just wind up singing the blues
You bet your life, don't bet your heart

The game of love is like roulette
(spoken)
You wanna play?
(sung)
Spin the wheel, place a bet
Love the rush, but don't forget

[RAFAELA & SUZY]
Always be ready to walk away

[RAFAELA]
Only bet what you can lose
If you ignore these simple rules
(spoken)
What can I say, girl?

[RAFAELA & SUZY, spoken]
Love is for fools

[RAFAELA]
You bet your life, don't bet your heart
Remember, you can pick and choose
You bet your life, don't bet your heart
[RAFAELA & ENSEMBLE]
You bet your life, don't bet your heart
You'll just wind up alone and blue

[ENSEMBLE]
You bet your life

[RAFAELA & ENSEMBLE]
Don't bet your heart

[RAFAELA]
You say, "No way, I'm too smart
No one's gonna take my heart"
And then one day he looks at you
And no one's ever looked at you just that way
Watch yourself, that's the start
The wheel spins red or black
Lose your heart
You'll never get it back
Red or black, spin black or red
Live tonight 'cause soon we'll all be dead

[ENSEMBLE]
Give back my life

[RAFAELA & ENSEMBLE]
Give back my heart
[RAFAELA, spoken]
Come on!

[SUZY, spoken]
Contribute to the wine club?
Fill me up, big boy

[Instrumental Break]

[RAFAELA]
Listen close to me
Just keep these simple rules
I'm tellin' you the truth, girl
Love is for fools

[RAFAELA & ENSEMBLE]
He can bring you furs
He can bring you jewels
It doesn't change a thing, girl
Love is for fools
He can say your eyes
Are like heavenly pools
But you know he lies, girl
Love is for fools

[ENSEMBLE]
He can say your eyes

[RAFAELA]
You know men lie

[ENSEMBLE]
Are like heavenly pools
But you know he lies, girl

[RAFAELA]
You know men lie

[ENSEMBLE]
Love is for fools

[RAFAELA, spoken]
Woo!

[SUZY, spoken]
Oh, sh*t! The cops! We gotta get outta here!
